Even moreso, take some time being a soldier or a cop, and undergoing trauma, shellshock, fear that some bystander is going to get killed. Fighting isn’t anything like the movies. No hero protection auras, no sucky marksmanship from the thugs, etc. I don’t expect everyone to be a cop/military, but I would wish that people had to understand the kind of stress that even a Good Cop/Good Soldier has to deal with.
Some of the business owners are armed and protecting their businesses, including the owners and employees of a tattoo shop which shares a storefront with a gun shop. The gun shop owners and employees are there also. The police saw them and left them to take care of their own property, thank goodness. A Dollar Store in their same strip mall was looted and destroyed.
In this case, yes.
Are gun manufacturers selling their products to foment lawlessness?
No, they are selling their products to make money.
You can't have it both ways.
Tell that to the President.
As the gun owner told the police in the town hall meeting regarding gun confiscation: “Don’t come to our houses and we won’t go to yours”.
Maybe people will actually be able to recognize that the Feds are the top of this problem?
There is not a hellofalot of civility there, right now.
